About this property

Spectacular downtown + mountain views, pet-friendly w. luxe amenities

If you want a spectacular view, especially at night, Overlooking Adventure is for you. In view are three of Gatlinburg’s Adventures: Anakeesta’s colorful AnaVista tower with its surrounding activities, Gatlinburg SkyLift Park with its SkyBridge pedestrian cable bridge forming a “7” at night, and further in the background, the Ober Gatlinburg Aerial Tramway with Ober Gatlinburg Amusement Park and Ski Area. Whether you are sitting in a rocking chair on one of the two decks or laying in one of the three bedrooms, the view is spectacular. The view faces west so you can see the sunset with its colorful sky setting behind the mountains and if you are willing to set your alarm in the early morning hours, you can see the full moon as it is setting behind the mountains. Finally, to the north on a clear day, you can see the never ending horizon towards Pigeon Forge and Knoxville.

If you are planning a getaway with several couples or families, Overlooking Adventure, completed in 2021, is just what you’re looking for. Twelve people can vacation here in comfort and style. In addition to three luxurious primary bedrooms, there is a queen-size sleeper sofa in the great room and two queen-size sleeper sofas in the lower-level family room. Each bedroom is appointed with your comfort in mind and includes a king-size bed, a 50-inch 4K Smart TV, an extra mirror, access to the deck and an adjoining spacious bathroom with a walk-in shower. The lower-level bathroom has a bathtub/shower combination. The warm interior décor was thoughtfully selected for a “beary” rustic yet comfortable feel. Take a drive around the nearby Roaring Forks Motor Nature trail. When you return from a day of hiking or biking the trails of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, skiing, snowboarding or tubing at Ober Gatlinburg Ski Area and Amusement Park or reaching new heights at Anakeesta Theme Park, a soak in the large hot tub on the main level deck may be just what you need. There are rocking chairs and an outdoor gas fireplace to enjoy too.

With the open and spacious great room, you can watch TV by the gas fireplace and join in on the conversation while playing games at the large dining table or surfing the web at the breakfast bar. Enjoy the state-of-the-art electronics in the great room, a 58-inch 4K Smart TV, Alexa for on-demand music, weather and sports, stream with high-speed internet. With numerous restaurants just minutes away, you could certainly dine out for all of your meals. Once you see the spacious well-equipped kitchen, you might want to shop at the nearby grocery store and have a home cooked meal. You will have small kitchen appliances, bakeware, cookware and tableware at your disposal with plenty of counter space to work on. The main level also has a full-sized washer and dryer for your convenience.

After dinner, you can go upstairs to the loft and shoot some pool at the full-size billiard table or go downstairs to the family room where there are several seating areas and plenty of space to hang out, play cards or watch a movie on the 70-inch 4K Smart TV. You can relax by the gas fireplace inside or venture outside and enjoy watching nature in a rocking chair on the lower-level deck.

Overlooking Adventure is pet-friendly, the whole family can be together. With a convenient location, its spectacular view, natural setting and lots of amenities, consider making memories of your Smoky Mountain adventure at Overlooking Adventure!

Top of the hill

We enjoyed our stay. The roads are pretty steep climbing to the top of the hill. 4 wheel drive is not a bad idea if roads are wet or slick. We enjoyed watching the mother bear and her two cubs that would show up each evening. Remember to lock car doors, because the bears know how to open them. There is a cabin right next door, but this cabin towers over it.

Family trip

The property was just as the pictures showed. We had 13 of us (6 adults, 7 kids ranging age 1-12). It was plenty of space for us, the view was beautiful, and the property was clean. Our key code they sent didn’t work when we first arrived, but I called and within less than 5 minutes she gave me a new code on the phone and made sure we were in. Great stay overall!

Family Getaway

The cabin was amazing. There was plenty of room for 3 families to spread out. The views were the best ever!!!!! The only complaint we all had was the FLAT PILLOWS. The flatest ones ever. Great location for Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. The lights at night from the upper deck were BEAUTIFUL. Would definitely stay again.

Great for family

Beautiful views, beautiful property, great space for all 11 of my family members. We saw a bear every day! The kitchen lacked some extra utensils and we had to run into town for any spices or anything of that sort. The communication with the property manager wasn't the greatest, slow to respond/ hard to get ahold of. This property is owned by a corporation so it lacks the personal touches that my family has loved with previous properties we've stayed at.

The Perfect Cabin

This was absolutely a beautiful cabin. It was nicer then the listing online. Very clean!! The view was breathtaking. We had a momma bear and her 4 cubs visit us every evening. We kept our distance and watched them play from the porch. The roads to get to the cabin are definitely mountain roads a 4 wheel suv is recommended but I did see a few cars make it up them. I would stay there again.

Incredible views

We had a wonderful stay. The views from the back deck were incredible. The home was spacious with three full master suites. We saw bears everyday! One evening we had a momma bear and four cubs walk right through our backyard. I was concerned about the drive to the home based on other reviews. The drive is not a problem unless there is ice or snow. We even drove in the first time in pouring rain. We found there is a right way and wrong way to drive in. Do not use Silverbell Ln. Use Roaring Fork Rd instead. GPS wants you to use Silverbell Ln. Roaring Fork Rd/Loop Rd is nice and wide and well paved.

Great views!

Stayed at this house for a weekend. Lots of room to spread out, beautiful views! Can’t beat the view! The ride to the house is pretty steep so definitely something to be cautious of, especially in bad weather. The first night we were there, there were very high winds which did cause concern as we were very high up. Definitely check the weather before booking, but overall great property.

In the clouds!!

The website description is not enough. This place is amazing. Super clean, I can say it was spotless! The rooms distribution was perfect for our party. The view let us speechless. Get ready to see bears. Technically, we were in the clouds. FYI… the access road to the cabin is a little steep so a AWD or 4x4 will be recommended, however, my sister in law use a 2WD and even when it was raining they didn’t have any issues to get to the cabin or main road. Last but not least the hot tub is a plus. Thank you so much.. we had an amazing vacations!

Perfect cabin! Beautiful views, love all the fireplaces! Wish we could have stayed longer!

Renting was easy! Property manager was great and very responsive to the fact a storm had blown a large tree down blocking our way up the drive when we arrived that evening. We climbed over and through the tree - nothing was gonna stop this trip! Made for great memories! The tree was gone the next afternoon! Lots of chain saws going that morning!

Perfect

The location and accommodations could not have been better. The cabin is nicely appointed with everything you need and more. The multiple fireplaces made it so cozy and the pool table and hot tub were a huge hit with everyone. There is so much family space, but having televisions in every room gave individuals the option to take a break and wind down. The views from the many decks were breathtaking. The drive was steep and you definitely need to consider weather when planning your trip. A perfect 5-star location.

Be careful if you rent this house

This house is beautiful but if you rent this house you need a 4 wheel drive especially if it rains or snows. Also, some areas on the mountain you cannot pass if someone is coming the opposite way. Be prepared to be in a stand off or back up down the mountain. If you go up or come down at night be careful because you cannot see and God forbid it's foggy. We had to vacate the property after one night and Jackson Mountain homes wouldn't even consider giving us any kind of a refund. YOU NEED 4 WHEEL DRIVE FOR THIS HOUSE!!!!

Amazing view

We were over the top pleased with this cabin (more like a lodge). The view was amazing. The property was very well maintained. The added treat of the nightly visit by the two bears was wonderful. The only drawback were the roads up, but what can you expect being in the mountains. Very well appointed with all things necessary. Very clean and fresh. Would definitely recommend for large families. Everyone was able to spread out.

Awesome Cabin

The cabin was very nice and comfortable. I would definitely stay at this property again. I would caution guest there are bears in the area. We saw a bear on the property every day, mostly after dark but I felt very safe in the cabin. The bears never bothered us. My only recommendation would be for the owner to have a set of stairs for the hot tub. I would give this cabin a five star rating.

This is my third visit to Galitnburg and I have to say this is the best cabin of all! It was easy to access, the views are to dye for, and the space it's just perfect! It has absolutely everything you will need in the kitchen. The location is the cherry on the top! You can easily go to the attractions and supermarket in just minutes.

Great Cabin, Poor Management

This cabin is really beautiful. And very clean overall. There were a few issues - impossible to get questions answered by the property manager before our trip, saw dust kept falling on the dining room table from the ceiling, lots of trash below the deck overlooking a great view, beds were uncomfortable, towels like sandpaper. All things we managed but these things need attention. We knew anything we requested would be ignored based on prior attempts to get information before our trip. Can’t recommend any property managed by Jackson Mountain.
